I am a frequent visitor to your island. It is a perspective you have provided not considered. I'm writing to ask you to
reject proposals that seek to limit home sharing platforms.
We are a family of three.We are responsible respectful people who embrace the opportunity to stay in
accommodations that are intimate and meaningful experiences that you cannot find in a hotel type of stay.
We have met many wonderful hosts who are are responsible, who take extra care to ensure their guests safe and taken
care of and are respectful of the communities where they are staying, hosts who encourage us to frequent local
businesses and support this economy.
Short-term rentals are an essential part of your economy.Your visitors help support the livelihood of local workers help
provide economic benefits to the entire community.
It is disappointing to learn that County Supervisors are considering severe limits on short-term rentals,which benefit so
many residents and local businesses that so many visitors like my family and the millions of other visitors here directly
support.
Please protect this wonderful alternative for families coming to your wonderful island,which supports residents and
business in your community. (�. to Q
